Abstract
Description
- 1. Field of the Invention
- The invention pertains to a method for controlling the cut-off register wherein print control marks applied to a printed substrate are scanned to determine the actual positions of the marks, and the actual positions are compared with desired values to generate actuating signals for cut-off register control actuators.
- 2. Description of the Related Art
- The cut-off register is usually controlled by the use of print control marks printed on the printed product. These marks are detected by sensors, and the actual values of the print control marks thus detected are compared with desired values for the print control marks, so that, on the basis of this comparison, actuating signals can be generated for controlling the cut-off register. These types of print control marks, which are printed on the product outside the actual printed image or subject, are undesirable especially in the case of newspaper printing, because in the case of newspapers the printed product is not cut and thus the print control marks are visible in the end product.
- U.S. Pat. No. 6,779,454 discloses a process for cut-off register control on a printing press which does not work with marks. Here the printed image on the product is scanned by sensors. The actual values thus obtained are compared with desired values, which are based on image data or preliminary-stage printing data. In the case of markless cut-off register control using desired values based on preliminary-stage printing data, large amounts of data must be processed, the exact amount depending on the resolution of the preliminary data. Efficiency thus suffers. If preliminary-stage printing data of lower resolution are used, the control accuracy which can be achieved suffers.
- Against this background, the present invention is based on the task of creating a novel method for cut-off register control.
- According to the invention, print control marks invisible to the human eye are applied to the substrate.
- The inventive process for cut-off register control offers the advantage that no print control marks perceived as undesirable are visible in the end product. The inventive process for cut-off register control also offers the advantage that only a relatively small amount of data needs to be processed for control purposes. A high degree of control accuracy can also be realized.
- It is preferable to apply temporary or ephemeral or volatile print control marks to the substrate. These are preferably thermal print control marks, which are produced by heating the substrate locally by means of a laser.
- According to an advantageous elaboration of the invention, the print control marks are applied to the substrate before several strands of substrate are assembled and thus cover each other. Different print control marks are applied to each strand of the substrate.
- Other objects and features of the present invention will become apparent from the following detailed description considered in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. It is to be understood, however, that the drawings are designed solely for purposes of illustration and not as a definition of the limits of the invention, for which reference should be made to the appended claims. It should be further understood that the drawings are not necessarily drawn to scale and that, unless otherwise indicated, they are merely intended to conceptually illustrate the structures and procedures described herein.
- The sole FIGURE shows part of a web-fed press for the purpose of illustrating the inventive process of cut-off register control.
- The FIGURE shows part of a web-fed press in the area of a
folder 10, which includes across-folding unit 11 and adelivery unit 12 downline from thecross-folding unit 11. Amagazine assembly 13 and aturner assembly 14 are installed upline from thefolder 10. - According to the FIGURE,
several strands 15 of substrate are turned 90° in theturner assembly 14 on theturner bars 22 of theturner assembly 14, and after they have been turned they are sent to themagazine assembly 13.Several actuators 16 for cut-off register control are integrated into themagazine assembly 13. In the exemplary embodiment according toFIG. 1 , a total of eightsubstrate strands 15 are turned in theturner assembly 14, where themagazine assembly 13 comprises a separate cut-offregister control actuator 16 for each one of these eightstrands 15. - Before the
substrate strands 15 enter thecross-folding unit 11 of thefolder 10, thesubstrate strands 15 are assembled into astrand bundle 17; that is, all of thesubstrate strands 15 are brought together and laid on top of each other, thus covering each other. Thestrand bundle 17 is then sent to acutting knife cylinder 19 in thecross-folding unit 11, where the individual copies are separated by the cross-cutting of thestrand bundle 17 in the area of thecutting knife cylinder 19. After the copies have been separated from thestrand bundle 17 by thecutting knife cylinder 19, they are given at least one cross-fold in thecross-folding unit 11, and after they have been cross-folded, they are discharged from the printing press in the area of thedelivery unit 12. - At this point it should be pointed out that the structure shown in the FIGURE is merely an example. It is therefore possible to install a quarter-folding unit between the
magazine assembly 13 and thecross-folding unit 11. A quarter-folding unit could also be installed between thecross-folding unit 11 and thedelivery unit 12. The number ofsubstrate strands 15 to be handled can also be varied as desired. - When the copies are being separated from the
strand bundle 17 by cross-cutting in the area of thecutting knife cylinder 19, it is important that the cross-cutting occur in the correct position of thestrand bundle 17. The inventive process for cut-off register control serves precisely this purpose. In particular, it is important that all of thesubstrate strands 15 of thestrand bundle 17 be aligned precisely with respect to each other and that, when a copy is separated from thestrand bundle 17, that the cross-cutting occur in the correct position for all of thesubstrate strands 15 of thestrand bundle 17. - In accordance with the present invention, it is proposed that print control marks invisible to the human eye be applied to the substrate, that is, to the
substrate strands 15. These print control marks invisible to the human eye can consist exclusively of print control marks which are visible only in the ultraviolet range of the spectrum and which are applied permanently to thesubstrate strands 15. - Preferably, however, temporary or ephemeral or volatile print control marks invisible to the human eye are applied to the substrate, that is, to the
substrate strands 15. These temporary print control marks are thermal print control marks, or alternatively they can be radioactive print control marks. The inventive process for the preferred case is described below, according to which thermal print control marks are applied to thesubstrate strands 15. - The application of temporary thermal print control marks to the
substrate strands 15 is accomplished in the exemplary embodiment according toFIG. 1 shown here in the area of theturner assembly 14 by means of printcontrol mark applicators 21, preferably designed as lasers, where an individual printcontrol mark applicator 21 is assigned to eachstrand 15 of substrate. - Before the thermal print control marks are applied by means of the print
control mark applicators 21, eachsubstrate stand 15 is scanned by asensor 20 assigned to the associatedsubstrate strand 15 to determine the position where the print control marks are to be applied to the associated substrate strand by the associated printcontrol mark applicator 21. The print control marks are then applied upstream, looking in the transport direction of thesubstrate strands 15, of the cut-offregister control actuators 16. - The thermal and thus temporary print control marks invisible to the human eye applied to the
substrate strands 15 in the area of theturner assembly 14 are scanned by asensor 18. Thesensor 18 is integrated into thecross-folding unit 11 of thefolder 10 immediately upstream, looking in the transport direction of thestrand bundle 17, of thecutting knife cylinder 19 of thecross-folding unit 11. - The positioning of the
sensor 18 for scanning the print control marks immediately upstream of thecutting knife cylinder 19 is important for guaranteeing a high degree of control accuracy of the cut-off register control. Althoughmany substrate strands 15 in thestrand bundle 17 are covered and thus not visible in the area of thesensor 18, through the use of thermal or even radioactive print control marks, it is nevertheless possible, with the help of thesensor 18, which is preferably designed as a thermal imaging camera, to detect the position of the print control marks in question on the coveredsubstrate strands 15. To facilitate the control of the cut-off register, it is preferable to apply different print control marks to eachsubstrate strand 15, so that the marks on one strand differ from the print control marks on the other substrate strands by, for example, their external form and thus by their geometry. - Thus, while there have shown and described and pointed out fundamental novel features of the invention as applied to a preferred embodiment thereof, it will be understood that various omissions and substitutions and changes in the form and details of the devices illustrated, and in their operation, may be made by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit of the invention. For example, it is expressly intended that all combinations of those elements and/or method steps which perform substantially the same function in substantially the same way to achieve the same results are within the scope of the invention. Moreover, it should be recognized that structures and/or elements and/or method steps shown and/or described in connection with any disclosed form or embodiment of the invention may be incorporated in any other disclosed or described or suggested form or embodiment as a general matter of design choice. It is the intention, therefore, to be limited only as indicated by the scope of the claims appended hereto.
